[Intro]
Am 

[Verse 1]
D                                   Am 
The night was cold and the wind was howling 
      D                                 Am
I was awaken by the sound of hoof beats pounding. 
            D                                           Am
Outside the window, on the ground, my old hound dog was growling 

[Chorus]
F    G           Am             
Grey Riders flew across my lawn 
F         G             E
I looked again and they all were gone. 
Am                            F 
That voice was calling and it cut through the night 
                      E 
Come on boys, let her go.

[Verse 2] 
D                                   Am
Up on a hill they rode in one long column 
          D                                       Am
They were freezing with the chills of the new day dawning. 
      D                                            Am
Their hair long and grey they heard just one voice calling 

[Chorus]
F    G             Am
Grey Riders on the morning sky, 
F            G                 E
The sun made diamonds of their road-weary eyes. 
Am                            F 
That voice was calling and it cut through the night 
                      E 
Come on boys, let her go.

F    G           Am             
Grey Riders flew across my lawn 
F         G             E
I looked again and they all were gone. 
Am                            F 
That voice was calling and it cut through the night 
                      E 
Come on boys, let her go.

[Verse 3]
D                                    Am
The night was cold and the rain came down 
      D                                             Am
Outside the window, on the ground our hound dog was whooooooo 
       D                                Am
I was awaken by the sound of hoof beats pounding. 

[Chorus]

F    G           Am             
Grey Riders flew across my lawn 
F         G             E
I looked again and they all were gone. 
Am                            F 
That voice was calling and it cut through the night 
                      E 
Come on boys, let her go.
